Unleash double the explosive power with the elusive Burst Quad Launcher in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 – but first, you must prove your might by dealing the most damage to the colossal Godzilla roaming the island. This exotic weapon fires two rockets per shot while only consuming one ammo, making it a game-changer for demolishing structures and flushing out enemies. Ready to dominate the battlefield? Here’s how to claim this rare launcher and turn the tide of your next match.
First added in Chapter 2 Season 5, the Burst Quad Launcher is capable of shooting two rockets at once, while only consuming one rocket. With its extra rocket, the launcher is excellent at destroying structures and forcing your opponents to leave their covered positions. The only problem is, the Burst Quad Launcher is almost impossible to get.
Here’s how to get the Burst Quad Launcher in Fortnite and how to use it.
How to get the Burst Quad Launcher in Fortnite
To get the Burst Quad Launcher in Fortnite, you need to deal the most damage to the Titan/Kaiju (Godzilla) during a match in Chapter 6 Season 1. Once the Titan is defeated, the player who dealt the highest damage will receive the Burst Quad Launcher along with the Godzilla Medallion as a reward. This exotic weapon fires two rockets per shot while consuming only one ammo, making it highly effective for destroying structures and forcing enemies out of cover. It cannot be found in chests or as floor loot, so focusing on damaging the Titan is the only way to obtain it currently. Be mindful that if you are eliminated while carrying the launcher, you will lose it unless a teammate picks it up for you.
In earlier Fortnite seasons, the Burst Quad Launcher could also be purchased from the NPC Fishstick at Coral Castle or Craggy Cliffs for 350 Bars, but this method is not applicable in the current season.
You can only receive the Burst Quad Launcher by dealing the most damage to Godzilla during the match. The launcher cannot be found in chests or as floor loot at the time of this writing (Jan. 17), but there is a chance that Epic Games adds the Burst Quad Launcher to the Chapter 6 Season 1 loot pool at a later date.
Alternatively, you can hunt down the player who dealt the most damage to Godzilla as they will receive the Godzilla Medallion, which will show the holder’s position on the map.
How to use the Burst Quad Launcher in Fortnite
The Burst Quad Launcher in Fortnite is a powerful exotic weapon that fires two rockets per shot while consuming only one unit of ammo, effectively doubling its damage output per shot. To use it effectively, aim from a distance and try to target enemies behind cover, as the rockets follow a zig-zag trajectory influenced by gravity, making close-range shots risky due to potential self-damage. The launcher excels at demolishing structures and vehicles, often forcing opponents out of their defenses. For best results, secure high ground before firing to account for the projectile arc and maximize impact. Keep in mind, if you are eliminated, you lose the weapon unless a teammate picks it up for you.
The Burst Quad Launcher functions slightly differently from your typical rocket launcher.
The Burst Quad Launcher’s rockets are affected by gravity, so you’ll need to account for distance in your shots. Additionally, the rockets will not go in a straight line, as they tend to stray off the path, so it isn’t the most accurate gun out there.
How does dealing damage to Godzilla unlock the Burst Quad Launcher in Fortnite
To unlock the Burst Quad Launcher in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1, players must deal the most damage to Godzilla during the match. The player who inflicts the highest damage to Godzilla is rewarded with both the Godzilla Medallion, which grants a recharging dash ability, and the exotic Burst Quad Launcher. This launcher cannot be found as floor loot or in chests and is exclusively earned by outperforming others in damaging the Titan.
What is the best way to ensure I deal the most damage to Godzilla in a match
To ensure you deal the most damage to Godzilla in Fortnite and unlock the Burst Quad Launcher, follow these key strategies:
-
Take the high ground: Position yourself on elevated terrain to get better angles on Godzilla’s weak spots, allowing you to inflict more damage while minimizing your risk of being stomped.
-
Use long-range, high-damage weapons: Equip weapons like the Legendary Rail Gun and Epic Quad Launcher, which are effective at hitting Godzilla from a distance. These weapons can be found in Monarch Supply Drops that spawn during the match.
-
Aim for weak spots: Target Godzilla’s weak points to deal extra damage and cause him to drop Godzilla Fragments, which restore your health and grant dash charges.
-
Collect Godzilla Fragments: Picking up these fragments during the fight boosts your survivability and mobility, helping you stay in the battle longer to maximize damage output.
-
Stay aware of other players: While focusing on Godzilla, watch out for opponents trying to steal your damage lead. Defend yourself as needed to maintain your advantage.
-
Use natural cover: Avoid building structures for cover since Godzilla’s attacks can destroy them. Instead, use hills or other indestructible terrain features to shield yourself.
By combining these tactics-optimal positioning, the right weapons, targeting weak spots, and maintaining awareness-you maximize your chances of dealing the most damage to Godzilla and earning the Burst Quad Launcher.
